“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He is not entirely aware of this as yet, for remember when physical improvements show themselves the inner, causal, change has already occurred.

Now. Ruburt is always under my protection in his out-of-body experiments. There is nothing to prevent his seeing me on such occasions but his own attitude, as I have said before. He progresses at a natural rate however, at his own rate. He will not overdo, for in this his ego is an aid and it will see to it that over-exertion does not occur. When experiments fail this is usually the reason, and also the reason for the rhythmic effect.

Ruburt is working out toward a complete symbolic understanding in a poem he began yesterday, and he will know the one to which I am referring.

For some time he has identified himself with the dream book, and projected his own problems upon it so that it bore the brunt, so to speak; and if it was a failure, then he was a failure and in very definite terms.

The identification no longer exists, and he realized today that his success is not dependent (underlined) upon the dream book for once and all, you see. He is no longer vulnerable in that manner. It was like his albatross around his neck, and it is no longer so.

For that matter the book has changed you see from what it was, as he has changed from what he was. He also knows that the book will be published, and this inner information has been given to him in one way or another time and time again.

It is an example of the way in which his abilities came to his aid, giving him inner assurances when they were most needed. He realizes that he is a creator of the book, not its prisoner, and he once thought that he was. He has stepped clear of it (pause), its fate no longer seen as his fate, regardless of what happens to the book.

Now he is so concerned however that I tell you whether or not Ace will take the book, it is difficult for me to speak clearly on the issue. (Pause.) Give me a moment. (Pause.)

He has freed the book also from the negative ideas that he had earlier projected upon it, ideas which were picked up by those who read it. (Pause.) We will see if we can get around him. Now. (Pause.)

He will hear of its publication soon. That is, within a short time he will know physically that it will be published. (Pause; smile.)He will be working on it through some stages of the Seth material, also. (Pause.) Wollheim will be involved in it. With it. It will be an ace of a book. (Smile, eyes closed.

He has made a sale and now goodnight.

(Don was delighted to learn about the sale of the Seth material to Prentice-Hall, and urged Jane to stress this sale to the dream book editor, Evelyn Grippo, in the letter he suggested Jane write.
